ABC7 has learned new information about the United Airlines jetliners that brought the first American Ebola victim, Thomas Eric Duncan, into the United States.

Among the findings: One of the planes that carried Duncan later made several stops at LAX.

SEE THE FULL LIST OF FLIGHTS AND CITIES FOR THE TWO JETS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS ARTICLE.

When Duncan left Liberia, he made his way to Brussels and boarded a United plane for the U.S. On Sept. 20, he took a United Boeing 777 from Brussels to Washington Dulles, before clearing customs and taking his connecting flight, a United Airbus 320 from Washington to Dallas.

Since then, based on their tail numbers, the two aircraft have carried passengers to 27 different cities, including Los Angeles.

In fact, the A-320 landed in Los Angeles as recently as yesterday.

Still, authorities maintain there is no risk to passengers who were on the planes with the Ebola patient or to anyone in the planes since then.

In fact, the director of Centers for Disease Control, Dr. Thomas Frieden, said there is "zero risk of transmission on any flight which the patient flew because he was not symptomatic until several days after his trip and could not have been contagious on the dates he traveled."

Below are all of the flights for the two planes that carried Duncan since Sept. 20, 2014.
